Butterfield Acres Children's Farm

Butterfield Acres Children's Farm in Calgary offers hands-on farm visits where children and families can connect with animals up close. Listen to sheep munch hay, feel the curly wool of a newborn lamb and inspect the hair inside a calf's ear. Visitors can also hold a newly laid egg while it is still warm and discover just how strong a cute little pig can smell. This back-to-basics setting invites families to slow down, share genuine moments and appreciate the everyday joys of farm life. Seasonal highlights include Harvest Pumpkin Hunts and Legendary Easter Hunts. Families can also celebrate with a memorable birthday party. The farm is open from 10 a.m.–2 p.m. on weekdays and 10 a.m.–4 p.m. on weekends and holidays until the end of September.
